The author can be described as an energetic, curious and logical teenage writer driven by passion alongside creativity. His love for economics emerged in the 6th grade, post a workshop in school about financial literacy & economics. The inquisitiveness led to taking the first step of being a changemaker; he visualised, wrote and published a microeconomic book for children. He has travelled extensively and successfully participated in numerous Model United Nations (MUN) conferences, developing a global perspective and a strong interest in world affairs. Living with type 1 diabetes has fostered resilience, discipline, and an analytical mindset. From a young age, he has been fascinated by world flags, culture, economics, and data- driven analysis, especially in sports such as football and cricket. These interests led to the research paper “Flags and the Economy: Visualizing Economic Ideologies and National Transformations Through Symbolism.” He is also the creator of GeoEdventures, a geography, history and culture based quizzing game designed to make learning about the world interactive and engaging. Through his work, he aims to help young learners understand money, markets, and decision-making through practical, relatable examples.
